Bachelor of Business Administration – Accounting Concentration

The Acsenda School of Management (ASM) BBA program in Accounting is designed for students who pursue a professional qualification and career in accounting. Our students will possess the knowledge, skills, capabilities and influence recognized and valued in Canada and around the world in public practice, commerce, finance, industry, government and other sectors. The program also provides a broad education necessary for our graduates to progress towards a leadership role in any organization.

The program has maintained a quality and up-to-date curriculum based on the most updated industry standards. Its highly qualified pool of faculty has extensive and vital industry experience. ASM has signed an agreement with CGA-BC that allows ASM BBA graduates to receive transfer credits for 14 papers from the CGA program. The list of courses articulated can be found here.

With the unification of the three accounting professional bodies (CA, CMA & CGA), the agreement between Acsenda School of Management (ASM) with CGA-BC will be honoured by CPA until September 2017. In the meantime, ASM is preparing the documents required to initiate the articulation process with CPA.

The Chartered Professional Accountants Act, merging the three Canadian accounting professions, is expected to be enacted in BC later in 2015. At that time, the Professional Accountants of BC will review the curricula of all post secondary institutions in relation to the requirements of the new governing body.
